Add a button element and size it to what you need. Add to the button a paint element (a rectangle to fill the inside of the button). In the paint element's properties window make sure you change the interface from simple to advance. Next scoll down the properties window until you see the Opacity option. Make this 0 to hide the image or rectangle you put in the button.
At this point you should have an 'invisible' button on the screen which can be place behind any object in the movie. ie. you can put an image on top of the button. Use the button mouse over tabs to set your desired actions.
I hope I'm making sense, I'm not too good at explaining things at times.
Cheers,

This is exactly How I would do it as well (have used it many times)
